As promised in my previous announcement, my website has continued to evolve: 1) The new "FAQs" page -- which covers too many topics to mention here -- provides information that should be of interest to all KX3 owners. No doubt the most interesting information is contained in the two plots, which show how TX efficiency varies with frequency and output power. The variations are surprising, and the implications are significant! (As many KX3 owners have already discovered, 0.5 Watts output is a practical limit for high duty cycle TX on 6 meters using the factory heatsink.) 2) The "Remarks" page is now organized by subject matter!
--- - - - --- Meanwhile, work continues in other areas: 1) My installation guide PDF file will be available for download in a few weeks. (Currently I just email it to each customer when they place an ordered.) 2) Another round of independent performance testing will commence later this month. This will be the first formal testing of my Plus (formerly known as Tropical) model. 73, Fred VE7FMN http://www.ve7fmn.ca/ P.S. Shipping may be suspended for two weeks in late August, if I'm able to get away on holiday (vacation). -- View this message in context: http://elecraft.365791.n2.nabble.com/More-hope-for-KX3-overheating-tp7591876.html Sent from the Elecraft mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
